I'd like to see home made consoles - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**1970 CST Short Wide** · 03-13-2006, 03:04 PM

My shift lever is getting sloppy so I'm thinking a console and floor shift.

I'd like to see what you guys have done in our trucks. I'm thinking a place for shifter, cup holders, power window switches ect ect

Also what shifter are you useing, I'd like to keep it short and close at hand

Thanks
